Key hardening changes:
- Config validation now rejects paths.source: . and paths.assets: ., so source/asset roots cannot
resolve to the repository root.
- apply-hak-manifest now refuses to run when paths.source is unset or unsafe, instead of potentially
writing under a root-level module/.
- Inline flags across utility parsers now reject empty values consistently, e.g. --dataset=, --hak=,
--endpoint=, --output=.
- build-changelog now supports --flag=value inline syntax like the other utilities.
Native topdata migration summary
- Replaced the legacy 2dabuilder runtime path with the native topdata builder.
- Native build, validate, compare, and convert flows now cover the canonical topdata pipeline.
- compare-topdata is now a native self-check; legacy reference-builder runtime usage was removed.
- Parts generation follows the native asset-scan contract and uses sow-assets via project asset resolution.
- Generated feat families, class-feat injects, masterfeat/successor expansion, and dataset-derived feat generation were brought to parity and regression-covered.
- Remaining mirrored datasets were migrated into native-owned canonical data while preserving lock IDs.
- normalize-topdata bridge behavior and migration-era ownership markers were removed.
- Documentation was rewritten around the native workflow and active contracts were cleaned up.
- Final hardening pass removed stale validator assumptions and cleaned ignored/generated artifacts for PR readiness.
